I've lived in Dallas, TX since 1988 just in time to watch the Mavericks start to really suck. I suffered through the Roy Tarpley days when we were really hoping he'd just stop shoving cocaine up his nose and play basketball. I watched the Mavericks front office in the early 90s botch countless drafts and I sat through season after season of uninspired basketball from nameless faceless spares. I remember when admitting to being a Maverick fan was like admitting you were gay.
Now all the sudden everyone is a Mavs fan and a Dirk fan. Back in 1993 I thought I was the only Maverick fan alive on this planet. It certainly felt that way. If you just started liking the Mavericks that's fine with me, trust me I'm not upset. I much prefer things the way they are today than back in the Don Carter 10 gallon hat days.
Maybe some other Mavericks fans can share their thoughts and share how they became Maverick fans
